Well, we’re 2 weeks into this thing, and so far so good. Actually, it’s going a lot better than I imagined. Sara’s tantrums are mainly when she is sleep deprived or off of her schedule. She mainly just wants to have attention too and to help. She is a very good big sister, always wanting to hug and kiss Allie. The best part is when she tells us what Allie wants. Like today, she told Lj and I in the car that she wants her binki, or at home she told us to let her just sleep when we went to hold her and when Lj was burping Allie tonight and Allie was crying from it all, Sara told “dabby” that she must want mommy. It is quite adorable.



Allie is sleeping quite well. She’ll give me a 4 hour stretch in there during the night usually and Sara sleeps at least until 7, sometimes 8:30…and those days are glorious. Allie sleeps so much during the day, that I can really get time in with Sara or other things done. But then there is the down side that Sara does best when I can get her out of the house (preferrably once a day) to go do something…not good when we’re all cooped up for the day. Anyway, all is well so far. I think my sanity and nerves are saved at this point because Lj is working at home and has been very gracious with his time so far. At least to have his help if a crises arises is enough to save the day. Hurray for flexible schedules!
